Republican Joe Lhota could land Mayor Bloomberg’s support in the mayoral race if Bill de Blasio wins the Democratic primary, according to sources.

Bloomberg — who so far has stayed on the sidelines — would be so turned off by the left-leaning de Blasio that he would be inclined to endorse Lhota in the general election, one source told The Post.

“It wouldn’t surprise me if the mayor were to endorse a Republican candidate like Joe Lhota if he felt that New York City was going to be handed over to someone like Bill de Blasio, who is looking to reverse important policies that have led to strides in education and public safety,” one source said.
